Crawling

No real crawling. Scooting backwards, yes.

Hi there! Same with my daughter. She sits up great and can roll without any problems but when she tries to crawl she goes backwards. And a 80lb German shepherd is obsessed with her to the point we can’t do anything with her without the dog getting protective. So I totally get what you are saying.

Mines the opposite! She hates sitting up but she’s scooting and pulling herself everywhere!!! I think they’re supposed to start crawling around 7-9 months!! So it’s coming!! Even just little 20 min stents of putting the dogs in another room and letting her do free time on the floor would help!!

Our girl is just now starting to take little scoots forward. She’s been scooting backwards for a few weeks now. We also have hardwood floors (no dog.. but a 3 year old lol), and we bought a super soft thick neutral-colored mat from tik tok shop and it’s been giving her lots of floor time! I think she’ll be crawling in the next week.. which I’m not ready for lol

Mine does this sort of army crawl thing on his tummy, but not real crawling on hands and knees yet. We have 3 completely oblivious dogs so we got my son a playpen that I can put him in and have a bunch of toys in there he can play with. I try to have him in there as much as possible and so far he has figured out how to sit himself up on his own and looks like he is trying to stand up, but not crawling on hands and knees…

My son is 8 months today and has not start crawling yet but he pushes up and scoots back so I know he will soon

My girl, 7/7, is crawling all over the place! She just started last week!

my baby’s not crawling but she’s pivoting and starting to rock with her belly off the ground. and scooting backwards and getting mad lol. also rolling everywhere and sitting. u may already know this but bare feet helps a ton with traction and helping them know where their body is! my baby is much better with balance and coordination when she has bare feet

We are crawling and getting into everything 🫣. We ended up getting one of those bigger playpens for him to safely play in. It keeps are dog out and it came with a mat for some padding!

But all babies are different! Try not to stress too much! She will get there and then you'll be chasing her every where!

No crawling, lays on her back, lifts her butt to a bridge position and scootches backwards lmao

Mine has been crawling for a few weeks now and is sitting up and pulling to stand on his own. His daycare teachers have given me the impression that he might be a little bit ahead so I don’t think there’s any reason to worry yet, every kid is so different. My first was crawling early too (for his adjusted age) but took forever to start talking- seems like kids pick one aspect to focus on at a time, and catch up on the other aspects once they’ve mastered the one they’re working on now!

My son just started a few weeks ago. He was also crawling backwards and then within a week learned how to crawl forwards. With him and my daughter, who is now 2, it was the same way. Seemed like one day they didn’t know how and then it suddenly clicked. A couple of weeks after he started crawling he started pulling up to standing. Your little one isn’t behind. They all progress at their own pace. But don’t be surprised at all if you just see it happen one day.

Lol my firstborn didn’t start crawling till like 11 months, and started walking at 15 months. Rolling over took him until 7 or 8 months 😅. He was quick to learn to communicate but a bit on the slow side to learn to move around independently. Now he’s just fine -babies just learn motor skills and communication skills when they’re ready!

My girl takes off backwards and rolls wherever she wants to go but cant quite figure out going forward. She will rock back and forth and then launch herself forward.

Honestly, enjoy it while it lasts 🤪😂

My daughter is just getting in the stance and she rocks a little before face planting.

Mine is almost 9 months and is not grasping the motion of me putting her knees under her. Or putting her on her belly on a pillow and trying to get her to experience the knee bending movements… nothing has clicked yet. So idk I’m at a loss on how else to show her

Army crawling like a monkey lol but no real crawling yet. You can try to get their abs to start working. You can look up the work outs on YouTube.

My son stated 3 days after turning 8 months. He was pushing himself forward with his legs, it took him a while to figure out how to go with his arms😅❤️ she will do it, or she could just go straight to walking later. Some babies completely skip crawling and have no interest in doing it. The rug should help so you feel a bit more comfortable with her on the hard floor. They get frustrated a lot while trying to learn, so you gotta let them struggle a little. I sucked at it, but I just knew when he really wasn't having it lol

Just started crawling last week! You’re not falling behind at all :)

Not crawling yet here and she’s on the floor a lott you could put baby on your bed and encourage it there or get a playpen

I have twins (a boy and a girl), the boy has started standing and the girl isn’t even crawling yet.
I guess every child is different.

Crawling with them helps and kind of helping them do the motions helps too that’s what my boyfriend did
